Guess Jeans.

Somebody took my camera from me and then took pictures

of my butt without my knowledge.

I rode my bike 20 miles in those jeans yesterday. While they

look really nice and shiny, there are definite comfort issues

while riding a Madone in them.

This picture also shows off how my back pack has the special

coating that glows when light is shined on them (the SAG logo

and side panels). A cool looking safety feature for night riding.

Halloween Ride.

Halloween Trek Pub Crawl.

I wasn't prepared.

Shanghai Crush.

Postcards from China. From people who miss me.

Halloween Party. Eckholm Style.

The last ever Eckholm Watertown Halloween party was

"Come as someone/something Dead" themed. After some

consideration, Krautbauer and I decided to go at Team

Radioshack. Jim Morrison, Farrah Fawcett, Swayze and

Chris Farley made appearances, along with generic "dead

person".

Lupe's wife brought homemade Tequilla and then things

got rowdy.

And when I say "Things" I mean to say "Hans".

More Kwame.

Give the people what they want.

And that is pictures of my dog.

Jet Bike.

Robert Perri and his Jet Bike.

So, around the time I was hired on at Trek,

Robert Perri had just finished crudely attached

a 2-stroke motor to a cruiser bike and had

instantly grown tired of it. Never one to

settle with the feeling, Robert looked to

other forms of propulsion and settled on

Jet power. After a short time discussing

the fabrication with an unnamed gentleman

in California who "does this kinda shit",

Robert was on his way developing a system

to crudely attach a jet engine to a cruiser

bike. Months have elapsed since then and

the Jet Bike was ready for its introduction

at the Brat-Off to what seemed like dozens

of on-lookers.

The bike itself is a cruiser with a coaster brake

as its only means of deceleration. The jet engine

is fastened to the frame with two quarter inch

plates on the down tube and seat tube. The jet

has 2 speeds, idle and full on. There is clearance

between the jet and bike for a leg (just not one

of any substance).

More pictures to come should anyone develop

enough co-jones to ride the thing.
